COVID- Postboks 930 3900 Nuuk 19, med omsætning og fastholdelse af medarbejdere. Tlf. (+299) 34 68 00 Fax (+299) 43 02 E-mail: [email protected] Myndighederne har lavet hjælpepakker for at lette det økonomiske pres og www.naalakkersuisut.gl lovgivningen er på visse områder nærstuderet og fortolket på en måde, så den mest muligt understøtter hjælpearbejdet. Alligevel kan det ikke forhindres, at en del medarbejdere, især udenlandske medarbejdere, ikke omfattes af en hjælpepakke og bliver hjemsendt uden løn eller afskediget. Sker dette, er betingelserne for medarbejderens arbejds- og opholdsgrundlag i Grønland ikke længere tilstede og arbejds- og opholdstilladelsen vil blive inddraget af de danske myndigheder, medmindre medarbejderen finder sig et nyt job inden tilladelsen inddrages. Men der er fortsat mangel på arbejdskraft i Grønland og COVID-19 krisen er forhåbentlig en midlertidig situation. De udenlandske medarbejdere der nu bliver hjemsendt eller afskediget, kan anvendes i andre brancher i Grønland og Departementet for Erhverv, Energi, Forskning og Arbejdsmarked har derfor været i dialog med SIRI (Styrelsen for International Rekruttering og Integration), myndigheden der i Danmark behandler arbejds- og opholdstilladelser i forbindelse med jobskifte. SIRI har herefter tilkendegivet, at de henset til den aktuelle situation herunder, at det pt heller ikke er muligt at sende medarbejderen ud af Grønland, vil behandle nye ansøgninger om jobskifte hurtigst muligt. Men at de i den forbindelse selvfølgelig er nødt til at følge interne procedurer i Grønland, hvilket bl.a. indebærer indhentning af kommunaltilladelser jf Landstingslov om regulering af arbejdskrafttilgangen i Grønland. Departementet for Erhverv, Energi, Forskning og Arbejdsmarked skal derfor KRAFTIGT opfordre til, at I kære Kommuner behandler kommunaltilladelser vedrørende jobskifter hurtigst muligt og gerne samme dag de modtages. 1 Det skal i den anledning bemærkes, at muligheden for at sende medarbejderen til en anden bygd/by for at søge arbejde, pt. er suspenderet på grund af rejseforbuddet mellem bygderne/byerne, hvorfor sagsbehandlingen for eget område bør have første prioritet. Når kommunaltilladelsen foreligger, skal den sammen med ansøgningen hurtigst muligt videre til SIRI, så det sikres at den udenlandske medarbejder hurtigt kommer i arbejde igen til glæde og gavn for Grønland. Til sidst skal det for god ordens skyld oplyses, at ovennævnte procedure kun vil være aktuel, sålænge Covid-19 har indflydelse på jobsituationen for udenlandsk arbejdskraft. Hvornår den ophører fastlægges i samarbejde med SIRI, dog senest den 30. juni 2020. Inussiarnersumik inuulluaqqusillunga Med venlig hilsen Lona Lynge, afdelingschef – afdeling for Arbejdsmarked 2 .

The guidelines also cover travelling with these animals within Greenland. In order to protect the Greenlandic Sled Dog as a breed Act no. 18 of 30 October 1998 establishes a so called sled dog district. The territory is defined as follows: th ● North of Greenland on the West Coast from north of 66 ​ northern degree of latitude, ​ th ● The entire East Coast down to Kap Farvel, east of the 44 ​ western degree of longitude. ​ Within this district, only Greenlandic Sled Dogs may be kept and it is strictly prohibited to bring other dogs into these areas. This concerns both dogs travelling onboard cruise ships with tourists and local dogs travelling within Greenland. In accordance to Article 19, subsection 2 of Act no. 18 of 30th October 1998 by Greenland´s Home Rule regarding sled dogs, it is prohibited to introduce dogs of any race into the sled dog districts. The same Article states that it is prohibited to reintroduce Greenlandic Sled Dogs once they have left the sled dog district. Working dogs and service dogs for disabled people may be permitted admittance to the sled dog district, but only after receiving a permit from the Government of Greenland. Working dogs are solely defined as the dogs used by police or by the authorities in relation to border control.

  • Ilulissat Icefjord
    World Heritage Scanned Nomination File Name: 1149.pdf UNESCO Region: EUROPE AND NORTH AMERICA __________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITE NAME: Ilulissat Icefjord DATE OF INSCRIPTION: 7th July 2004 STATE PARTY: DENMARK CRITERIA: N (i) (iii) DECISION OF THE WORLD HERITAGE COMMITTEE: Excerpt from the Report of the 28th Session of the World Heritage Committee Criterion (i): The Ilulissat Icefjord is an outstanding example of a stage in the Earth’s history: the last ice age of the Quaternary Period. The ice-stream is one of the fastest (19m per day) and most active in the world. Its annual calving of over 35 cu. km of ice accounts for 10% of the production of all Greenland calf ice, more than any other glacier outside Antarctica. The glacier has been the object of scientific attention for 250 years and, along with its relative ease of accessibility, has significantly added to the understanding of ice-cap glaciology, climate change and related geomorphic processes. Criterion (iii): The combination of a huge ice sheet and a fast moving glacial ice-stream calving into a fjord covered by icebergs is a phenomenon only seen in Greenland and Antarctica. Ilulissat offers both scientists and visitors easy access for close view of the calving glacier front as it cascades down from the ice sheet and into the ice-choked fjord. The wild and highly scenic combination of rock, ice and sea, along with the dramatic sounds produced by the moving ice, combine to present a memorable natural spectacle. BRIEF DESCRIPTIONS Located on the west coast of Greenland, 250-km north of the Arctic Circle, Greenland’s Ilulissat Icefjord (40,240-ha) is the sea mouth of Sermeq Kujalleq, one of the few glaciers through which the Greenland ice cap reaches the sea.
